Amazing experience! - This was a wonderful tour. We had the driver Kasper. He was on time to bring us to our tour and he had incredible English. We got to our tour slightly early so we got to grab some food before starting the tour. The salt mines were absolutely fabulous, out of this world. I definitely recommend doing them at least once! When we finished our tour we ended up coming out a completely different entrance, Kasper drove the whole way up to us so we didn’t get lost. Highly highly recommend.

Great experience - Daniel was our amazing chauffeur! - We had an amazing experience at the Salt Mines. We were collected by Daniel who was friendly and professional. We had a private transfer with Daniel to the Salt Mines, directly from our hotel. He ensured that we were given our tickets and informed us of where to queue and when, where we could purchase food, souvenirs etc. He also informed us of both exits and said to let him know where we exited and he would come to pick us up from there, which he did promptly. There was brilliant communication from Daniel via WhatsApp at every stage of our journey. I would 100% recommend this tour and if you have Daniel - you’re sure to have a great experience! Thank you so much Daniel!!

Overpriced Salt Min Tour - Enjoyed the salt mines but tour was way overpriced. There 4 people in the car for half hour drive and we paid 1500p CASH. The salt mines entry was 120p each. Found out later there is direct train there at fraction of the cost.
